As you grow older, you’ll be faced with some challenging Wap版

试题详情及答案解析

As you grow older, you’ll be faced with some challenging decisions--like whether to cut class or try cigarettes. Making decisions on your own is hard enough, but when other people get involved and try to pressure you one way or another it can be even harder. People who are your age, like your classmates, are called peers. When they try to influence how you act, to get you to do something, it’s called peer pressure.
Peers can have a positive influence on each other. Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in the solar system. Maybe you got others excited about your new favorite book, and now everyone’s reading it. These are examples of how peers positively influence each other.
Sometimes peers influence each other in negative ways. For example, a few kids in school might try to get you to cut class with them; your soccer friend might try to convince you to be mean to another player and never pass him the ball.
It is tough to be the only one who says “no” to peer pressure, but you can do it. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do.
You’ve probably had a parent or teacher advising you to “choose your friends wisely.” Peer pressure is a big reason why they say this. If you choose friends who don’t cut class, smoke cigarettes, or lie to their parents, then you probably won’t do these things either, even if other kids do.
If you continue to face peer pressure and you’re finding it difficult to handle, talk to someone you trust. Don’t feel guilty if you’ve made a mistake or two.

试题分析：随着年龄的逐渐增大，你将会面临一些艰难却有着重大意义的抉择--像逃课、抽烟等。当你的同龄人试图影响你作出决定时，他们给你施加的影响叫做“同辈压力”。同辈压力有积极的影响，也有消极的影响。
【小题1】推理判断题。文章是以第二人称的口吻来写的，根据倒数第二段第一句“You’ve probably had a parent or teacher advising you to “choose your friends wisely.””可知，文章的作者不是父母或老师，根据第二段“Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in the solar system.”和第三段的例子可知，作者以上科学课、新书、逃课、踢足球等发生在学校的事情为例，说明这些事情就发生在作者的身边，故选A。
【小题2】推理判断题。根据第四段“It is tough to be the only one who says “no” to peer pressure, but you can do it.”和第五段“.You’ve probably had a parent or teacher advising you to...”及第六段“talk to someone you trust”可知，最后三段是作者给学生的应对同辈压力的建议，故选B。
【小题3】细节理解题。根据第五段“If you choose friends who don’t cut class, smoke cigarettes, or lie to their parents, then you probably won’t do these things either, even if other kids do.”可知，如果跟不逃课、不抽烟、不撒谎的人交朋友，你很可能也不会做这些事情，说明与没有不良嗜好的人交朋友能够有效应对同辈压力，故选C。
【小题4】主旨大意题。根据前三段首句“When they try to influence how you act, to get you to do something, it’s called peer pressure. ...Peers can have a positive influence on each other. ...Sometimes peers influence each other in negative ways.”可知，文章前三段讲的是同辈压力的概念和积极、消极的影响，根据后三段“It is tough to be the only one who says “no” to peer pressure, but you can do it. ...You’ve probably had a parent or teacher advising you to...talk to someone you trust”可知，最后三段讲的是应对同辈压力的建议，说明文章主要讲的是同辈压力，故选D。
